2004 G5 Graphics Card Questions
I have a 2004 G5 Powermac Dual 1.8ghz with the original graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra with 64MB DDR SDRAM), this card is getting a bit outdated now and while the dual 1.8 processor with 3.5 Gig of ram and a 10,000 rpm HD keeps the G5 fast enough for my design needs i feel a new graphics card will help too... but i'm not sure what i need, I don't need over kill.. but i do use dual 20" monitors... any advice would be appreciated.

A Radeon 9800 Pro would be a good upgrade for this machine. The Mac Edition is available from epowermac for $550 and no doubt from other places too. I had a flashed PC version in my G4 tower, which was good.
